Hey everybody.
I am selling shares in the upcoming 2009 British Columbia Poker Championships at the River Rock Casino located just outside of Vancouver. The championships run from November 12th until the 22nd. I plan on playing two preliminary events, one of them is $550 and the other is $1100. The first is on November 14th, and the second takes
place on November 16th-17th. I will then play the Main Event, which runs from November 19th-22nd. The tournaments are well known for their excellent structures, and have been praised by many top pros including Daniel Negreanu who took down the ME last year.
As far as my poker background, I am primarily a cash game player and currently play full-time 100 NL FR on Full Tilt. My SN is "SchruteFarms". I have posted a graph from my latest database below, which is 65% 50 NL and 35% 100 NL. The graph spans from June-October. I have also included a link to my PTR page, but it is missing a fair number of hands.

I have been staked since the beginning of June by NL_Fool, a coach here on 2+2 and a 400-600 NL reg. I have transferred him just under 6k since then (including rakeback), and he can vouch for my integrity and level of play. Before transferring to online play, I played 1/2 and 2/5 NL live here in Edmonton where I currently reside. I have played semi-professionally since I turned 18, and currently have one year left in my BA degree at the University of Alberta. I have limited online MTT experience, but I have cashed in the three biggest events I have played this year including two WCOOP cashes. I play under the name "AdVictoriam!" on Stars, and have included my Bluff and OPR page below.

I tend to play smaller tournaments on Full Tilt, but have also included my Bluff and OPR page. I have struggled the past year or so in the smaller buy-in tournaments, however I have an excellent record in the few events I have played over $200.

Since the events (especially the prelims) will have weak-ish fields, I am selling shares at a 10% mark-up (1.1-1). Anyways, I am looking to sell no more than 50% of my action, so here is an outline:
Total buy-ins= $4,350 CDN (**$4,089 US)
Available= $2,175 CDN (**$2,044.50 US)
Selling 5% for $239.25 CDN (**$224.90 US)
Selling 10% for $478.50 CDN (**$449.79 US)
Selling 15% for $ 717.75 CDN (**$674.69US)
Selling 20% for $ 957.00 CDN (**$889.58 US)
Selling 50% for $ 2,392.50 CDN (**$2248.95 US)
**
The exchange rate is currently 1 US= 1.042 CDN, but I expect this to average around 1 US= 1.06 CDN in the next month. I follow the exchange rate religiously and I feel this is a fair assumption for the expected rate. Therefore, for the purposes of keeping things as fair as possible, I will be using this rate for both accepting and paying back on the stake. If you have any problem/better suggestion for this, please PM me or post back in this thread prior to shipping me any money. I would prefer all payments to be made via FTP, but I can accept Stars transfers if it is an absolute must.
I will be giving updates on a nightly basis, as I find that texting updates during play/on breaks can be semi-distracting. I have no problem giving out complete personal information to potential interested backers if needed. This includes my full name, phone number, etc. NL_Fool would also be happy to answer any questions about his experience with myself and my honesty/integrity.
Anyways, thanks for reading!
